Phase 3
"I don't appreciate your lack of trust in me. After everything I've done. Everything I've gained by trusting in your wisdom. I assumed you'd have more faith in me." Vader complained
Sidious smirked and replied, "I do. The only one in our private cabin aboard this Super Star Destroyer is Captain Walker and two of my personal Praetorian Guard. Normally I travel with eight Praetorian guards and two full squadrons of Stormtroopers whenever I travel."
"Still testing me. Still seeking to evaluate how I respond to every little thing." Vader groused
US Agent was silent waiting for any communications from his handler Contessa Valentina while monitoring the diagnostics of the air ship through the wireless communications array.
"This is how you learn. It's how you'll grow even stronger Lord Vader. Look at Captain Walker and how attentive he is waiting expectedly for his commander Contessa Valentina to contact him if the need arises." Sidious replied
"Your excellency permission to be addressed as US Agent not John Walker. John Walker isn't reflective of my commitment to ensure your safety." US Agent requested
Sidious nodded in approval saying, "Your commitment not only in action but also in perspective is to be commended. You place John Walker your old identity behind you even in trivial matters such as how you would like to be addressed. Interesting. Well US Agent I gladly grant you your request. Though Lord Vader has the skills to back up his devotion to the Empire...I'm certain you have skills that reflect your military commitment as well."
"The forces of Neo Hydra and I will not fail you Emperor. Without you the planet will have to deal with the chaos and violence of another long and drawn out war. We can't afford to lose you your excellency." US Agent replied
"US Agent come with me I sense Steve Rogers is aboard this plan with his allies. We must protect the Emperor from an assassination attempt."
"It's official Steve Rogers really is a hypocrite. It's time to put an end to that traitor." US Agent said aloud while the Emperor smiled
"He's mine. Deal with the others." Vader said
Vader still remembered how Steve Rogers helped Obi Wan Kenobi defeat him on Mustafar five years ago. Vader wanted Rogers to suffer equally to how much he would make Kenobi suffer once he found him. More importantly Vader was not going to fail his master. He was going to pass all of his tests and prove himself worthy to be his student. Vader could hear a distant noise and he heard the discussion of something called Phase 3 amongst Steve and his allies. Vader beckoned US Agent forward determined to put an end to whatever Phase 3 was. Then an explosion ripped through the airship but Vader could sense it was a small one. Vader could see more explosions eventually happening which resulted in Vader running to the source of the danger with US Agent trailing behind him.
